I cursed my child

I cursed DS with my long legs.

Okay, okay...so maybe it isn't a curse but this mama cannot find pants that will fit him! He is only in the 32% for weight so 3-6 still fit him in the waist, maybe 6-9 but his legs are so long that 6-9 are like floods on him and 3-6 is a joke. How does that work?! My child is always wearing floods. I am going to have to find a big and tall children's shop for him when he hits his teen years!

Anyone know of a brand that has adequate pant length?

If you do let me know. Ty is going to have the same problem!

Definitely not a curse! My poor DD has been cursed with my short, thick legs....she will hate me later.

Hahah.  Do you live in a warm weather climate?  He can wear shorts everyday!  F has a similar problem- t-shirts are like belly shirts.  It's ridiculous.  At this rate, he'll be wearing onesies until he's 30 b/c I'm constantly yanking them down.  How about the Carter's comfy pants?  We have a few pairs of those (tight at the ankles) and seems like there is a lot of room for length.  Also, not that jeans are comfy, but DS has a pair of Levi's and their length is nice and long (3-6) and we end up cuffing them.  He's pretty tall, too- 27 inches at his 4-month..but also a porky pig.

I have the opposite problem. 3 month pants still fit, moved on to 6 month onsies. She has her daddy's short irish legs. I know that doesn't help your question though

The fix in our house was cloth diapers   Ladybug has long legs, but the cloth makes her bottom fluffy enough she fits in the waist for the larger sizes... for instance, the dress she is wearing in my siggy is a 12 month.

My DS was/is that way. He has super tiny hips but super long legs. He's been in 5T for a while now for the length, but his hips are still a 3T size! When he was younger, I would just roll the elastic band down one or two times til it fit better. Then, he could wear the length of the higher size but the waist got minimized.

Genius idea! I will have to try that.
